Unfortunately, the embedded version of Mozilla that GWT uses is a bit
fragile when it comes to different Linux distros. I'd recommend that you
give GWT Trunk or GWT 2.0 a try, as it does not use embedded Mozilla.

Hi All,
I just started using GWT and I'm having some problems getting my GWT
project in Eclipse to run. I started by creating a new Web Application
Project, clicked the project and tried to run it but I'm getting this
error when it runs:
The browser widget class could not be instantiated.

I tried the same steps on WindowsXP (x86_64) and didn't encounter the
same problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
